2G Carbons
2G Carbons develops MgOCarbon, a patented filtration material made from agro-industrial waste that removes nitrogen, phosphorus, and COD from wastewater. The process recovers nutrients to produce struvite, a slow-release sustainable fertilizer, supporting circular economy principles. The company offers consulting services to help industrial clients adopt this wastewater treatment and nutrient recovery technology.

Problem
Wastewater treatment facilities and agricultural industries face high costs and complex processes for removing contaminants like nitrogen, phosphorus, and COD from effluent streams. Traditional treatment methods are often slow, expensive, and fail to recover valuable nutrients, contributing to environmental pollution and soil fertility depletion.
Solution
2G Carbons provides a patented filtration material called MgOCarbon, produced from valorized agro-industrial waste, that efficiently removes contaminants from wastewater while enabling nutrient recovery. The material filters nitrogen, phosphorus, and COD from effluent streams, and the captured nutrients are converted into struvite, a slow-release, sustainable fertilizer. This process is faster and more cost-effective than conventional treatment methods, offering a circular economy solution that turns waste streams into valuable agricultural inputs. The company also provides consulting services to help industrial clients implement the technology and optimize their water treatment and nutrient recovery workflows.
Target Audience
Primary customers are wastewater treatment plants, agro-industrial companies, and agricultural operations seeking sustainable, cost-effective nutrient removal and fertilizer recovery solutions.
